Confession Friday...

Ok... so I had good intentions. Really, I did. I think I got lazy sick or something and after the first week I stopped, and I actually felt GUILTY that I had blogged about it but didn't finish. Like, I will never even meet most of you fabulous folks IRL, but I felt like you would be virtually shaking your heads and giving me the TSK, TSK finger wag. So, what have I done? Well, I jumped back on the wagon so to speak... but I didn't tell you, because I was afraid I might disappoint you again (even though you didn't know I did it the first time)... and I waited until I was 100% committed to reveal... so where am I now?

WEEK FIVE, DAY THREE

Why am I telling you this now? Because WEEK FIVE, DAY THREE is the first day in the program that has NO WALKING intervals (I'm sorry for shouting, but this scares the living $%#@ out of me)... I have to run for
TWENTY STRAIGHT MINUTES

You made me smile. I know what you mean about disappointing your blog readers!

You can do 20 minutes, I know it! It's really hard to get up to that point but seriously, once you are able to do 20 minutes it gets easier. I run twice a week on the treadmill and the first 20 minutes are always the hardest. The adrenaline finally kicks in after that so don't be discouraged if it's hard at first!

I'm pretty sure no one has been holding their breath for pictures of my vegetable garden, but I feel a bit guilty for hiding it. I posted a picture of it when it was first planted, but not since. It looks awful now!

On the upside, I've gotten a few cucumbers from it. Everything else, not so much.

You made me smile.... I do the same thing when it comes to my readers! I'm so afraid of disappointing them! But things like that happen and what is important is that you are BACK! and sticking to it. Goodluck today. You will be fine. :) Sea Marie

Haha, I love this post! Way to go! Months ago I announced to all of my friends on facebook that I was going to run a half-marathon in October (what a terrible idea!)... but I fell off the wagon, and unlike you I didn't manage to climb back on. :P

Anyway, I'm pillowsophi from Etsy (and the Undiscovered Vintage team); I just thought I'd stop by to say I'm following you now! Of course, a follow-back would be wonderful... but I should warn you, my blog is still in its beginning stages. :)

Run, Kelly, Run! You can do it!Just keep saying, "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can..." like the little engine that could :-).(Easy for me to say--I'm one of the folks on the couch you're lapping.)

I totally advise the C25K plan. I started with a half-marathon in January and of course did not train the month before because of the busy holidays. I finished but came home and threw up...who starts with a half marathon? so stupid.

YOU ARE AMAZING!!! Oh my gosh. I'm still doing week 1! HAHA. I have such a difficult time with it and with my knees. I swear if I was using a treadmill, I probably could have progressed by now. But asphalt hates me. YOU GO, girl!
